Yeah, my dad goes there with his defender and lets me have a go sometimes. I enjoyed it so much I got my own. I put a video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkVH1hM0Cwg (if you watch it the audio is terrible as it was in a waterproof case on my GoPro).

Going down in my suzuki on the 14th, hopefully get some more footage.

Hi, don't know if it's too late and you've already insured it but try Admiral or Elephant ( they're both the same ) but I find Admiral to be just that little bit cheaper. I've been getting quotes around the £550 mark. Also did you have a moped when you were younger as you can transfer your one years no claims over from it. Regarding the little box thing unfortunately companies that use it won't insure vehicles over 15 years old I'm afraid. Hope this may bring some help to you, let us know how you get on ;)

Hey have you tried aviva? Theyve always been the cheapest ins company consistantly for me over last 11yrs. Ring them though, for some reason they never come out cheapest on the comparison sites.. no idea why? Cann haggle a bit then too ;)
For an example a friend of mine was getting £2000+ on 1.2 corsas etc, then got £700 from them and £760 1.6 golf?!
Im old though, but my sj has just brought my ins down from my golf, i think you can get better than 1400
